23 LaTex

Students from STEM disciplines – such as Physics, Mathematics, Computer Sciences, and Engineering – may choose to use LaTeX to format their thesis. LaTeX can make formatting mathematical equations, scientific formulas, and code easier, and for those who understand how to use a LaTeX template, it can result in a pristinely formatted thesis.

If you are interested in using a LaTeX template to format your thesis, check with your department to see if there is a preferred version. The College of Engineering also provides a LaTeX template that meets the Graduate College’s formatting requirements. This can be accessed via Overleaf or GitHub.
